ps Can you show us a shot of the set up? or is it a secret?
It is a 100mm f10 ( 1000mm long) refractor.
Great shot Ted, much better than my (overexposed & poorly polar aligned) attempts.
Great detail in Jupiter's bands - did you use a filter to enhance them?
Can I second Alun's request for details on the scope used.
Mike
